Conclusion

The results show that the generative AI model performed well in understanding the scene and camera position, but struggled with the aesthetic aspect. Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored 0.25, indicating it’s not very good at reacting to camera positions in the prompt. This suggests the generated images might not accurately reflect the intended camera angles.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.45, which is good but not excellent. This means the model is able to understand the scene in the prompt to a decent degree, but there might be some discrepancies between the intended and generated shots.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.13, which is very good. This means the generated image’s aesthetic is very close to the expected aesthetic, indicating the model is capable of producing visually appealing images.

Overall, the model shows promise in understanding the scene and creating visually pleasing images, but needs improvement in accurately capturing the intended camera positions.
